First Volume of 'Gyaru no Jitensha wo Naoshitara Natsukareta' Manga Published

Gyaru no Jitensha wo Naoshitara Natsukareta (ギャルの自転車を直したら懐かれた) manga series' first volume was published on June 8, 2024 under Overlap's Gardo Comics label. The series is the manga adaptation of Shōga Neya's web novel of the same name, illustrated by Takechikei.

The story begins when a highly skilled but introverted male high school student repairs a gyaru girl's broken bicycle. This encounter leads to an unexpected bond between the two. The colorful and energetic world of gyaru culture and the gradual warming up of a quiet boy create an enjoyable dynamic in the romantic comedy genre.

The novel was first published on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō platform and quickly gained attention. The story, which has garnered significant interest in digital format so far, aims to reach a wider audience in manga form. The volume was presented to readers with both a colorful cover illustration and extra content. As manga centered on the gyaru subculture have gained popularity in recent years, this series is also expected to make a similar breakthrough.

Takechikei's artwork successfully reflects the characters' emotional transitions and gyaru aesthetics. Although it has not been officially announced whether subsequent volumes are planned, considering the number of chapters the novel has, it is likely that multiple volumes will be published. For readers who love romantic comedy and gyaru genres, this new manga brings a warm and entertaining breath.
